The Stable House

We had a wonderful girlie weekend The property was lovely and very comfy The outdoor garden area was just perfect and the hot tub was just what we needed We’ve already booked for next year

We found the house to be very comfortable and you thought of everything, we had a very nice stay and was very happy .

Our dog eevee enjoyed the space of the garden and the ping pong balls ,that's why we bought more . Also the piece and quite was nice as well.

Had a great weekend away, accommodation was perfect for us all.

Our dog especially loved the garden to roam in and explore. It was very peaceful and relaxing.

Beyond impressed!

Such a special place to stay - The Stable House is beautiful inside and out. Perfect for our relaxing family holiday, perfect for our two dogs - especially the gorgeous, spacious garden. The whole place has a unique, happy vibe; could not recommend highly enough, just hope we are lucky enough to stay again one day. Very clean from top to bottom, wonderful facilities and extremely comfortable beds! Thank you for our memorable holiday.

My family group of 6 adults, 1 infant and 1 child had a fabulous stay to celebrate a birthday.

Everything from the information, the owners extra assistance, location and surroundings, to the wonderful facilities was just perfect for us all. We thoroughly enjoyed the indoor and outdoor games, hot tub and the barbecue. The garden was spacious and shady which was needed in some very hot weather. We would not hesitate to recommend this holiday home.

Generally, we were very happy with the accommodation and had a lovely family get together at Stable House.

It was very useful to have the 3 bath/shower rooms with 7 people staying. We also made good use of the garden, hot tub, patio area, table-tennis table and pool table. The kitchen / dining area was well equipped, though we thought a bread bin might be a useful addition, and we felt that it would be useful to have more cupboard space in the kitchen for food storage. Cleanliness was generally fine, wouldn't say 'spotless', and there was a faint doggy smell on arrival (but to be fair, there had been a lot of rain the week before and we were expecting a dog friendly property). I must stress that the above are minor comments, and didn't really detract from our very enjoyable week away.

This was a lovely place to stay, it had everything we needed and more!

I'd like to thank the owner for mowing the footpath for us so we could walk the dogs behind the road.

We loved staying here!

The super king size bed was so comfy, the living room was a lovely space to relax in and the kitchen/diner was great with everything we needed. The jacuzzi was brilliant and we spent so much time winding down after some great local dog walks. Our dog absolutely loved the big garden and we could relax knowing she couldn't get out (I'd be more careful with small breeds though). We hope to come back as we didn't get to visit all the sights and tourist spots nearby because we were enjoying the house and garden so much. We hope to return with some friends next time as the other bedrooms were also lovely.

Lovely home with perfect grounds.

Listing made it quite clear it was on a farm, so we expected some noise, but it was perfectly quiet, we didn't hear anyone!! Very secure with the electric gate.

Super house and facilities.

Great location. Will definitely return

Thank you for a lovely stay!

The property was very clean and comfortable, equipped with lots of games and things to do. The location is very peaceful but just a short drive from Yeovil and Sherborne where there is lots to see and explore. We would love to return in the future!

The stable house is stunning, it literally made us all gasp with excitement as we entered and started to explore.

The house was dressed up for Christmas, the tree was beautiful and grand. Major hits were the pool table and hot tub. The welcome pack was such a great touch and one we were so thankful for. The location is perfect, from becoming a hermit for your stay or venturing to the very near local pub that also has an open fire room. This was one of our best Sykes stays so far and we’ve done a few. The owners really do think of everything you may need. We are hoping to book again for the warmer weather.

Lovely accommodation, well equipped.

Very comfortable. Welcome chocolates, biscuits, milk and orange juice was a lovely touch. Secure garden for the dog.

Such a lovely house!

This was our 3rd visit and every stay has been brilliant. It's the perfect place particularly if you have a dog - our pup loved running around in the garden which is completely enclosed and dog safe. There's loads of local places to explore like the Nine Springs park and Frome which are beautiful! We hope to be back again in the future.

A great property which suited our party very well.

Plenty of utensils, cups, plates, glasses etc - lovely large mugs which were great!! The whole house had a homely feel to it, which was also lovely and warm and spacious. The pool table in the lounge was an added bonus with many a tournament had by our party! We had 2 dogs who found the large enclosed garden great for pottering about it. The courtyard area with the hot tub is delightful especially when you turn the outside garden lights on - so pretty! All beds were comfy and bedrooms spacious. Of the 4 bedrooms, 1 is ensuite, with the other 3 bedroom sharing a large bathroom down the landing. The other bathroom is downstairs near the back door which was useful when coming in from the hot tub. Plenty of car parking too. I would have no hesitation in booking this property again.

A long weekend with girlfriends.

This house was perfect, very well equipped, spacious and comfortable. We loved the hot tub with the fairy lights. We were lucky with the weather and spent a day in lovely Sherborne and another at Montacute House (National Trust). There’s clearly so much more to do both at the house and around and about. We had a very enjoyable time. Thank you for this fabulous property.

The house is really lovely, charming and characterful.

The location is also really lovely. It was perfect for our family get-together, and everyone really enjoyed being there. What was a little disappointing was that upon arrival, we discovered that certain elements of the kitchen were not in good condition. The cutlery drawer, the utensil drawer and the Airfryer were in a pretty disgusting state. We had to wash all the cutlery and utensils and clean out the drawers themselves. The Air Fryer also needed to be thoroughly cleaned before use. The Ensuite bathroom was also not completely clean. There were hairs in the shower and around the loo. This slightly detracted from our stay.

Really lovely property.

It was very spacious, there was plenty of crockery, trays, cutlery etc for a large group. We enjoyed the hot tub and outdoor space, and it was a short drive from the lovely town of Sherborne. We would love to stay again.

What a lovely place.

Definitely recommend

The house was absolutely perfect.

The pool table and table tennis was a massive hit with our kids. And chilling in the hot tub at the end of the day in the pretty courtyard was just lovely. Everything had been thought of. There was enough kitchen utensils and cutlery, and chairs for everyone in each room. My kids had great fun using all the cushions to build a pillow fort in the living room. Beautiful location. Couldn't recommended this place more. Plus I accidently left some clothes behind and the owner was so helpful.

We absolutely loved our time at The Stable House, we'd definitely come back :)

We loved this cottage.

Surpassed all our expectations and so many extra touches really added to the stay. Beautifully done out and really spacious The owners couldn’t have been more helpful

Beautiful house Very well kitted out The owner was responsive and helpful to any queries We particularly loved the outside eating area, gorgeous big equipped garden and very warm hot tub.

Beautiful house and garden.

Really clean and well equipped. Loved the outdoor table tennis table! Very dog friendly. Owner was charming and helpful

Stable House was perfect for a family winter holiday.

Ample space and the pool table a real bonus also the hot tub much enjoyed by us females !! The enclosed garden was safely explored by our 2 dogs as well. The house was lovely, clean and very well equipped.

Perfect property for a large family get-together Facilities were just right with the pool table being a winner !

Owners nearby to help with any queries Great location for exploring Somerset and the Dorset coast

This was an amazing place,loved the hot tub and pool table had many hours of fun .

Was greeted by Sarah and was made to feel very welcome straight away. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants a lovely holiday. The house it self was absolutely lovely and equipped with everything you could ever need for a lovely holiday. Definitely a 10 out 10

The Stables is a lovely combination of old and new.

The new kitchen area is fabulous and the old lounge is cosy with the added bonus of the pool/football tables. The hot tub and garden are a delight, shame weather wasn’t better to enjoy both more. I would worry about the deep stone steps for young children or older people though to get to and from the house but ok for us. We had a lovely time. The little extras on our arrival were an added bonus, thank you Sarah.

Many thanks for a fabulous house!

Beautifully kept and very spacious. Perfect for a family Golden Wedding celebration!

The 2 bathrooms upstairs were all at one end of the first floor and most of the bedrooms were the other end.

Consequently people walking up and along on the first floor at night. Otherwise it was lovely and very comfy

The house is beautiful, and very well equipped.

It was just perfect for us as a family holiday base. The beds are amazingly comfortable and everyone slept well. We loved the large safe garden and the jacuzzi. We were fortunate to have a week of lovely weather and enjoyed visits to Monkey world and Weymouth and Sherbourne. The Abbey is beautiful.

We had a lovely stay.

The house and garden is beautiful. Could have easily stayed for longer. Will definitely be returning

A beautiful accommodation in a beautiful setting.

The Stables had gorgeous furnishing with everything that we needed. We couldn't have asked for more. Thank you.

Had a lovely experience at The Stable House

We had a fantastic stay at The Stable House.

It was the perfect place to celebrate hubby’s 50th Birthday. Facilities and layout are fantastic. Hot tub and pool table were well used and we had 16 people playing charades in the living room on Saturday evening. Very spacious! Lovely pubs and dog walks nearby. Easy access to big supermarkets, shops and takeaways in Yeovil only 10 minutes by car!

We had a lovely stay in The Stable House which was warm and cosy for our December booking.

The owner had put up a Christmas tree which was a lovely touch. The house was very well equipped for the seven of us, the beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of seating in the living room. The owner gave us a tip for a Christmassy place to visit nearby which was very useful. Would highly recommend for a family get together.

Everything was good thank you,very well facilitated great location, big comfortable bedrooms showers were very good.

Very cosy and warm loved the log fire.

Lovely stay a little issue with the heating in one room and flooding outside the front door and car park— Will need wellies next time!

We had just the best family time together celebrating 3 milestone Birthdays.

The house is so spacious, has comfortable beds, is tastefully decorated, very clean, has everything you need and great facilities in terms of oven, microwave, dishwasher, toaster, kettle, washing machine, a line to dry the clothes on and even clothes pegs :). Nice personal touches with local biscuits, honey, juice and milk to welcome us, even doggie treats for the pets! We all enjoyed the pool table and table football and not a day passed where neither were not used! The garden is a real treat for humans and doggies alike. The hot tub a wonderful bonus. We are thinking of returning again one day we enjoyed it all so much and it worked well for us as a group of parents, grown up children, a grandchild and 2 dogs. The only added extra which might help future guests is some plastic glasses/flutes for outside. Highly recommend The Stable House.

Lovely house we enjoyed our stay very much.

Pub nearby served exquisite food. Comfortable beds, gorgeous kitchen. ( more teaspoons needed) Ages from 77 to 14 we all enjoyrd our stay. Will do it again.

Fabulous accommodation and excellent customer service from Sykes.

Perhaps an additional saucepan/serving dish would have been useful but we managed. Will definitely us Sykes again.

We were a group of 6 adults, 1 baby and 3 dogs who all had a wonderful stay at The Stable House.

It was well equipped, really spacious and very comfortable. The location is very quiet despite having the working farm behind. It has a beautiful secure garden which our dogs loved exploring, while we spent time in the hit tub. Approx an hour away from the coast, 10 mins from Yeovil and Sherborne. A lovely base to travel from or just stay and chill for a few days. Finally great communication from the owners, we felt very well cared for during our stay.

Beautiful idyllic setting hidden away with lots of space, rooms and facilities to use.

Hot tub was a huge hit, very clean and tidy, would highly recommend.

The stable house is a lovely well equipped property.

Although a working farm there are no animals its grain. A few trucks come and go but really doesnt impact on the garden which is fabulous and very secure if you have dogs. The hot tub has a maintenance guy who comes a couple of times a week. We would thoroughly recommend this property for a quiet stay in the countryside.

Great property!

Had everything we needed for our stay for our big group. The small extras of milk, juice, dog biscuits, info leaflets etc were very much appreciated. Great location, visited bath, longleat safari park, and the Jurassic coast which were all under an hour away. Fell in love with the castle grounds in Yeovil. Thanks for a great stay!!

The cottage was lovely and fully accommodated our needs the only small niggle was that it would be helpful to have a few more kitchen utensils such as small sharp knives, measuring jug, additional frying pan.

It seems a bit petty as I’m typing this because the facilities were great just when you are cooking for a lot of people it would have been handy to have these extra bits but we managed fine , it’s just a small thing we noticed.

We enjoyed our stay very much

Absolutely beautiful house and grounds with absolutely beautiful people that run it.

The lady went out of her way and well above expectations. The house itself is a stunning comfy cosy place to be and the interior is gorgeous. There’s loads of books, board games and just about everything you could ever need for a holiday in the country. There’s so much information there as well so what ever you’re looking for long walks, country pubs, nearby areas to visit the lot. Thank you for such a lovely stay we will definitely be returning.

Sarah the host was very informative about locations to visit.

Very good communication from them before and during the stay. There was also plenty of handy guides in the property to assist in your holiday

We stayed for a lovely long weekend over NYE.

We were a group of three couples, and four children. Plenty of space for us all, never felt too crowded! The cottage is beautiful, very cosy and well kept. The bathrooms were newly furnished and the bedrooms were lovely. We loved the kitchen/ dining space, this allowed us to cook as well as entertain the children/ be in the same room! The hot tub was perfect, the festoon lights in the garden over the hot tub are a nice touch! Once we were done in the hot tub, we loved coming into the lounge, sitting by the log fire playing board games - perfect weekend away! The welcome treats were a nice personal touch! We would strongly recommend staying at The Stable cottage! Thank you again for a wonderful stay!

We were a family of 5 adults with 2 dogs and stayed October half term for a week.

The accommodation was fabulous. Beautiful inside and out. Very clean on arrival. Great facilities and well equipped with games and reading books. Hot tub was well used as well as pool table and football table. All showers and kitchen has been upgraded and were fabulous. A spacious property. Beautiful bedrooms with comfortable beds. The only improvement for me personally would be a secure garden for my dog. Although partially gated my dog could escape through the hedge being a beagle! So needed to stay on a lead. However it is beautiful, very quiet and private, and it would have been lovely to go in summer months to enjoy the garden and outdoor seating. Highly recommend.

We stayed as a group of extended family for the weekend to celebrate a big birthday.

The cottage was lovely and clean. It has recently been refurbished, so had a new kitchen and an extra ensuite shower room. The hot tub is close to the back door and in a secluded area with easy access to the downstairs shower. All the little extras are really appreciated; milk, orange juice, cake, flowers, local honey and dog biscuits. Our dogs loved running round the back garden then falling asleep in front of the log fire. Everyone enjoyed using the pool table and there were plenty of squishy sofas to relax on. It really feels like a home from home. We had a slight problem finding the place. We had put the Stable House Mudford into Google maps and it took us to a pair of cottages down the road. We realised this wasn't the right place after pulling into someone else's drive. On Google maps Evans and Pearce Mudford takes you to the correct location. I would definitely recommend this cottage and will probably book again in the future.

Excellent accommodation, beds really comfortable, all really clean.

Cake, milk and orange juice supplied on arrival all very welcoming. Thank you very much.

The Stable House is a beautiful property with a big garden and plenty of facilities, loads of space for a party of 8 plus a baby the only issue we had was the steps in the garden but it just meant we had to keep a closer eye on the little ones so didn't cause us too much of a problem, on arrival there was milk and orange juice in the fridge, fresh flowers and a delicious cake waiting for us, Rob and Sarah were amazing even coming and replacing half the water in the hot tub with cold so we could cool everyone off in the heat wave, they couldn't have been more accommodating, communication was spot on, there were loads of games and toys and the pool table made the boys very happy, I would definitely recommend this property and will certainly be back in the future

The cottage was beautiful and spacious with really comfortable furniture.

Everyone commented on the size and comfort of the beds! The HOT TUB was to die for and got a lot of use. It was kept in tip top condition all week. Really nice and appreciated touches were the coffee beans and grinder, the dog biscuits and the welcome pack. The garden was large and very usable with shade provided by a large cherry tree complete with edible cherries. There was enough room for everybody to have their own space but still interact when wanted. Although there is a rather small shower cubicle downstairs, there really needs to be a large family shower in the main bathroom. This did not detract from the great time we had. Sarah (the host), was so kind and thoughtful and went out of her way to be helpful. Overall a great holiday cottage that we will certainly look to use again. Thank you Sarah.

We had a really lovely stay.

The house was perfect for us with the hot tub and pool table being great extras. The bedrooms were all really lovely as was the upstairs bathroom and garden. The owner left milk, orange juice, a cake and dog biscuits. This was a really lovely touch. We will definitely keep the property in mind for future trips. I did leave a little note at the property but unfortunately we couldn't get the coffee machine to work and the dishwasher wasn't cleaning properly. It didn't dampen our stay but just thought you would want to know for future guests.

We had a lovely few days at the stable house.

All the facilities and amenities were great. Little extras, cake, fresh milk/ juice/ coffee beans and dogs biscuits were left for our arrival- nice little touch. The garden is all enclosed and it’s safe for the dogs to explore whilst enjoying the hot tub. Not a criticism but the only thing we found- 3 of our group had cut our fingers and couldn’t work out how- on the last day we realised it was from the bathroom locks, both had a bit missing and had sharp metal. Once we realised we put some tape over the sharp edge and it wasn’t a problem. We would definitely recommend and would stay here again we had a lovely time. Thank you

The stable house is beautiful, hugely exceeded our expectations!

It was exactly what was required for us, 8 adults and a dog. The only suggestion I could make is that it could possibly do with an extra shower. It didn't bother us too much but just the one proper shower downstairs might not be ideal for large groups of adults. Other than this cannot fault the property, everything is as described or even better! We did have an issue with the hot water during our stay, not the fault of the hosts. Rob and Sarah were fantastic, on site within 15 minutes of me contacting them, they fixed it short-term and arranged an engineer to come and rectify the problem properly, all on a bank holiday weekend! This service went above and beyond what I expected, they were a delight to deal with. I can't recommend the Stable House enough.

Great location for sightseeing and walking, with a good sized well equiped garden and hot tub for spending time on site.

Accommodation is nicely decorated and spacious, with open plan kitchen dinner and large family room. Our only critism is the size of the ground floor shower cubicle, which is tight, and the absence of a proper shower unit in the first floor bath room. However, we realised there was only one proper shower unit before we booked and accept the facilities had been fairly described. The hosts Rob and Sarah were easy to contact and were a delight to deal with. We had a most enjoyable stay at The Stable House.

We came to The Stable House with friends for the weekend and had a really enjoyable stay.

The house is very comfortable with beautifully decorated bedrooms and lovely homely touches. The hot tub was lovely and warm when we arrived and we enjoyed using it in the evenings especially with the outside lights overhead, however both evenings it was windy and did start raining which cooled it down somewhat! The beds were extremely comfortable and the pool table in the lounge was great. My only criticisms would be that for a property that sleeps 8 there was only one small stand up shower cubicle downstairs. There is a huge bathroom upstairs and the roll top bath was beautiful, but not especially practical for that many people (we did run out of hot water on a couple of occasions, especially when we all wanted to shower/bathe after the hot tub). Also, due to the layout of the 4th bedroom, there was no option to be able to push the twins beds together to make a double, which would have been nice as there were 4 couples staying. Despite this, it was a lovely property and I would consider staying again.

A beautiful place to stay, lovely touches to detail with the fresh milk, orange juice biscuits and cake on arrival, also tea, coffee and sugar so no worries about packing them.

Would definitely stay again, just be mindful that it's 3 double beds and 2 singles if your having to share, it wasn't a problem for us but some parties might find it. All in all we loved it ❤️

We loved it hear and would def stay again

Had an amazing 4 night break here.

The house is so much bigger then the pictures. Beds were very comfortable no complaints from any of the party. Building work didn't hinder at all. The hot tub was a massive hit all round but the kids especially loved it. We came home on storm day and were a bit worried, the owner allowed us to stay latter to wait for the worst to pass and even tried to help with alternatives for the night. We would love to come back here but will make it during warmer months to make full use of the outside facilities.

We had a wonderful weekend with our grown up kids & our grand doggies at The Stable House.

It was everything we wanted & more, spacious yet homely. The small touches like cake & dog treats were very nice. It was a lovely place to relax. Some nice walks locally & The Rose & Crown was a great country pub to walk to. We all had an amazing time & would highly recommend.

This was a lovely homely and cosy place to stay, me and my family enjoyed evey minute, the owner was welcoming and made you feel very relaxed every little detail in the property was thought about, lots of small festive touches were made too, which made our stay perfect being winter, the hot tub provided us with hours of fun, and the bedrooms were extremely cosy and comfortable too, highly recommended and would love to return again

Such a comfortable cosy house and loved the little extras which were supplied.

The house was beautiful and had everything that we needed, very comfy beds too. Only one thing which would have made it even better would have been an enclosed garden as half of the hedge didn't have a fence and our dogs would have been running off to explore into the field if we didn't keep an eye on them in the garden. Overall though we had a very happy and relaxing short break, thank you!

The stables was absolutely amazing.

Just as the listing said. Everything from the cupcakes to the chocolates to the hot tub…. Just perfect. Spotlessly clean and welcoming. Thank you so much xxx

Excellent property!

Everything it says on the website and more!

The owners were very responsive when we had requests or queries.

The house was in a great area and felt like home. The welcome back was much appreciated and the decor is fantastic as is the beautiful garden and hot tub. Even though it is on a working farm with renovations taking place it was so quiet and peaceful.

Wonderfully quiet and peaceful location.

.gorgeous house, extremely well equipped. Better than we could have hoped for

What a fantastic stay we had in Stable House.

We were a family group of 6 adults and 3 young dogs. The bedrooms were all large so no arguing over them. Super comfy beds. Everyone loved using the hot tub and pool table. The dogs had great fun playing in the large garden. All the facilities you could need - little notes dotted around the house which made the stay very easy. Bean bags and bbq for the garden were a nice surprise as they were not mentioned in the description. Only downside was no easy walks (that we found at least!) from the cottage apart from along a quite busy lane - but to be fair the dogs either played in the garden or were so tired from their days out that it wasn’t actually a problem! Would definitely recommend and would love to come back! Thank you!

What a fantastic holiday home - beautiful and spacious with lots of extra little touches that made it all the more special, such as fresh flowers, dog biscuits, milk and local biscuits and cake.

The owners had left lots of information on what to do in the local area and we had a wonderful week’s stay.

This farmhouse is an absolute gem.

It is comfortable and spacious, and the hosts were keen to provide anything we asked for. The hot tub and pool table means regardless of weather you can have a perfectly entertaining evening in, but if you wish to explore there are plenty of nature walks. Sherbourne is nearby and has all the local amenities.

A fabulous place to stay, with everything you could possibly need provided for you.

The hot tub was a lovely way to end a day spent out and about, especially when the weather was very hot whilst there.
